Winter running

While maybe not as extreme as my Kurravaara run two years ago, this morning treated me to a biting -17 degrees and clear skies as I completed the December half marathon challenge along the banks of the Ume River. Over time, I have come to appreciate cold weather running more and more, especially when I can stop by at Circle-K for coffee and a lussekatt.

Once back home, I decided to cancel my trip south as Anna needs all the time that she can get to wrap up her PhD. Now I only have to spend half of the day on the phone waiting in line to get the points back...
